Tankers Battle
SMU Saturday
Area swimming fans will
get a once-in-a-lifetime chance
to see two former Olympic
stars battle one another to
morrow when A&M’s Tetsuo
Okamoto and SMU’s Pedro Galvoa
hit the water together as the Ag
gies and the Mustangs, both strong
contenders for the Southwest Con
ference crown, face each other in
Downs Natatorium at 3 p.m.
Okamoto, swimming for his na
tive country, Brazil, took third in
the 1952 1500 meters while Galvoa
placed third in the backstroke for
Argentina. They will meet tomor
row for the first time in the 440
freestyle and possibly the 220.
The Aggies, who defeated SMU

month, and have swept five meets
so far this season, will be without
the services of Jose Merino, the
South American 100 meter champ.

Giant Jim Krebs, who serves-up points in lethal doses,
brings his league leading SMU Mustangs here tomorrow
night to face A&M in White Coliseum at 8.
Krebs set a new Southwest Conference single-game
scoring record earlier this season by sinking 50 points against
the University of Texas. SMU, currently ranked 12th in
tice. He will miss tomorrow
night’s game along with junior
Roger Harvey.
Starting for the Aggies will be
Bill Brophy, Ken Hutto, George
Mehaffey, Ted Harrod and Don
Bilbrey.
Bilbrey started against Arkan
sas Monday night, and proved his
worth by scoring 10 points before
fouling out, second high for the
Aggies. Bilbrey is a senior and
stands 6-3%.
“Bilbrey has definitely im
proved,” said Coach Ken Loeffler.
“He was hitting that jump shot
well the other night, and of
course that doesn’t hurt us a bit.
He gives us more rebounding
strength also.”
The Aggies held Krebs, a 6-8
junior, to only seven points in a
conference tilt at Dallas earlier
this year, but the Ponies still won
easily, 97-68.
A&M stands fourth among' con
ference teams with a 3-5 mark.
SMU sports a spotless 8-0 slate.
The Aggies lost their only game
this week, 52-61, to Arkansas while
the Ponies managed to slip by TCU,
26-22, in their only encounter of
the week.
Starting for SMU will probably
be Larry Showalter, Bobby Mills,
Ronnie Monas, Joel Krog and
Krebs.
